                    In 2010, GER’s founder published his first book, The Lake of Blood. Although very well written,
                     the book did not make it to limelight. Being an avid reader, he could not help being disappointed
                      at the dwindling reading culture which has reached epic proportion.

                <p class="text-black">
                    Then in 2020, the idea to establish GER was conceived after his second novel, The Foreign Factor,
                     was published by Extension Publications. GER was born out of the strong desire to get people to 
                     read books for the purpose of creating global sustainable development.

                    Quickly, a team of like-minds came together and established GER. We believe Jim Rohn when he said, 
                    “Reading is essential for those who seek to rise above the ordinary.” We believe that the world can 
                    be transformed if we awaken the slumbering global reading culture – for the ultimate good of humanity. 
                    This we hope to achieve by making reading more attractive than ever before.

                    Our unique reading competition, Global Reading Prize, is simply unparalleled. 
                    For the first time ever, readers who win this competition can be rewarded with thousands of dollars
                     simply by reading and proving that they have read.

                <h4>ABOUT THE PROGRAM</h4>
                <p>
                    It has been said that if you want to hide important information from an African, you should put such information in writing. Many agree with this statement. However, a very careful observation backed by proven data shows that there is a decline in global reading culture. This is a dangerous sign for our world and most experts agree that something should be done quickly to salvage this situation – before it is too late.</p>
                <p>
                    Global Reading Prize is the perfect solution. This reading program is designed to foster personal growth inspired by knowledge. The company behind this initiative, Global Education Revolution, GER, is founded out of a deep-rooted desire to get people to acquire knowledge from books and transform such knowledge for self and global sustainable development.</p>
                <p>
                    We believe Jim Rohn when he said, “Reading is essential for those who seek to rise above the ordinary.” We believe that the world can be transformed to a great degree if we awaken the slumbering global reading culture – for the ultimate good of humanity.</p>
                <p>
                    The program is designed in such a way that no one participates and remains the same!
